However, what detracts from the overall impression is... this "Miss" seems not to be the kind of person that's easy to get along with...
If the aura Mr. Shigetarou exudes is "bold" and "passionate," reminiscent of "flames," then the aura that Sazanoko exudes is "cold" and "distant," reminiscent of "ice."
Aoto had observed that since he entered the hall with Kondo and Chokata, Sazanoko's expression... has not changed at all—it's been expressionless all this time...
Her expressionless face seemed to cool the air around her by several degrees.
—Just like Saito, unsmiling and serious?
Sazanoko's aloof demeanor prompted Aoto to think of his bodyguard, who probably wouldn't say more than ten sentences all day...
After Aoto introduced himself, he saw Chiba Shigetarou first freeze in surprise, and then hurriedly move his eyes up and down, quickly sizing up Aoto.
"Oh? So you are that Tachibana Aoto?" A joyful gleam suddenly burst forth from Chiba Shigetarou's eyes.
